A Lucidic Langur

An endangered purple-faced langur with leucism, a very rare genetic condition creating white fur and skin. I was lucky enough to spot this juvenile in the Sinharaja Rainforest in May 2025. This species is known for being skittish, making it a true ghost of the forest and a wonder of nature.
